Maintain Tools With Care. Keep the
miter saw clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating. DON’T put lubricants on
the blade while it’s spinning.
Remove Adjusting Wrench and
return it to proper storage location
before turning on tool.
To Reduce The Risk Of Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown Pieces
• Use Only Recommended Acces-
sories. Follow the instructions that
come with the accessories. The
use of improper accessories may
cause risk of injury to persons.
• Choose the right 10-inch diameter
blade for the material and the type
of cutting you plan to do.
• Make sure the blade is sharp,
undamaged and properly aligned.
With the saw unplugged, push the
power-head all the way down.
Hand spin the blade and check for
clearance. Tilt the power-head to
45 degree bevel and repeat the
check. Make sure the blade and
arbor collars are clean.
• Make sure the collars’ recessed
sides are facing the blade.
• Using 1/4 inch hex wrench sup-
plied, make sure the arbor cap
screw is firmly tightened.
• Make sure all clamps and locks are
tight and there is no excessive play
in any parts.
• Keep Work Area Clean. Cluttered
areas and benches invite acci-
dents. Floor must not be slippery.
To reduce the risk of burns or other
fire damage, never use the saw near
flammable liquids, vapors or gases.
Plan Ahead To Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Face and Ears
Know Your Miter Saw. Read and
understand the owner’s manual and
labels affixed to the tool. Learn its
applications and limitations as well as
the specific potential hazards peculiar
to this tool.
To reduce the risk of injury from acci-
dental contact with moving parts,
don’t do layout, assembly, or setup
work on the miter saw while any parts
are moving.
Reduce the risk of Accidental
Starting. Make sure switch is “OFF”
before plugging miter saw into a
power outlet.
Plan your work.
Use The Right Tool. Don’t force tool
or attachment to do a job it was not
designed to do. Use a different tool
for any workpiece that can’t be held in
a solidly braced, fixed position.
CAUTION: This machine is not
designed for cutting ferrous
metals (steel, iron and iron
based metals). Use this miter
saw to cut only wood, wood like
products or soft metals like alu-
minum. Other material may shat-
ter, bind on the blade, or create
other dangers.
CAUTION: When cutting any
metals, sparks or hot fragments
could cause a fire. To reduce the
risk of this, disconnect any dust
collecting bag or hose from the
miter saw, and remove all traces
of wood dust from inside dust
traps in the miter saw.
